Basic Economics: Economics you can use in non economics classes

Many social sciences classes involve economic theories even if they aren't "economics" classes. This class will provide non economists (or those new to economics) an understanding of important economics concepts. Are supply and demand curves really that important to the market? What is a tariff and do they help protect local jobs? Does a minimum wage hurt or help an economy? Is trade and globalization good for an economy? Will robots take all our jobs in the future? These questions and more will be answered in this seminar. No previous knowledge of economics is necessary.
